The cable is designed to be used as interconnecting cable for measuring, controlling or regulation in control equipment for assembly and production lines, conveyors and for computer units. It is commonly used in a wide number of industries including building and construction, rail and transport infrastructures, transmission and automation and process control. This cable is also used by electricians in certain fixed installations where only light mechanical stress may occur. This cable can also be used outdoors (but should be protected); however, it is best suited to dry or moist conditions indoors.

In most cases only two cores, the line and neutral feed cores are likely to approach the maximum permitted loading. The current rating for twin core cable can therefore be used in these cables. Where more than two cores are known to carry an appreciable current, the multiplying factors applicable to the two core ratings are given below. The normal current rating for twin cable may also be used in cases where the number of cores carrying appreciable current does not exceed the square root of the total number of cores in the cable.
